On Thursday 5 January Dom Meinrad Gibson died in a holy and very peaceful manner, in his monastic cell, surrounded by the prayers of his brethren, and supported by all the rites of holy Church.
Homily for the Requiem of Br Meinrad Gibson OSB (13/1/17)
‘It will be said on that day, “Lo, this is our God; we have waited for him, that he might save us. This is the Lord; we have waited for him; let us be glad and rejoice in his salvation”.’
It’s a beautiful thing happening today. The soul of our much-loved Br Meinrad is being taken up in the Eucharistic arms of Mother Church...
